PopBin

HISTORY

PopBin designed by Andrea Santamarina is the first product we produced. We launched a first edition of 150 handmade units.

All products are made in collaboration with the prisoners of the carpenters workshop in Dueñas Prision (Palencia, Spain), to reintroduce them to a working environment. We are committed to create playful products with local materials and companies to promote responsible design.

Presentation at: The Spanish Film Institute (Cine Doré designed by Javier Feduchi).

The goal was to create a surprise effect on consumers introducing an object from the film industry into another atmosphere (the workspace) with a different function.

Create an original, playful and practical wastepaper basket establishing an original visual association between two containers: a popcorn box and a wastepaper basket full of crumpled sheets.

Its irregular shape also reminds to a boat bow and makes easier its transport. Pop-bin can be placed on the floor and in a wall corner using its handle and can contains different things (plants, magazines, clothes, toys…). The large size bin can also be used as a laundry basket.
